National Slowpitch Director
2008 will bring to the west what we think will be the greatest thing to happen to slow-pitch softball since the composite bat. AFA that started as a girls fast-pitch association in 1980 has decided to expand out into the adult slow-pitch game. Lance Boyer has agreed to assume the National Slow Pitch Directors job. Lance who has been affiliated with a few national associations over the years says I think this will be the opportunity we need to revitalize slow-pitch. We are continuing the game where everyone else seems to be letting go. Over the past years other associations have thought less and less about the player and more and more about building a big business. AFA Slow Pitch is committed to keep the player in mind when it comes to rules, prizes and the overall good of the game.
